Thanks for all the responses!!! :)

So, here is what I did to change things up, and I am going to keep doing this until I stop losing.

I am not concentrating on Protein, or following the protein first rule. I am still eating turkey and chicken, but also veggies and fruits, yogurts and granola. I get organic granola so it doesnt have all the added bad stuff. Also, I get organic yogurt, and organic milk, add some berries and make a yummy smoothie, nothing else in it. I eat blueberries, strawberries and blackberries, either in a smoothie or in vanilla yogurt with granola on top. I even got an organic granola with dark chocolate for a treat. I am eating around 1400-1500 calories, some days even as much as 1800!! A few days I even had organic cheadar crackers shaped like bunnies, LOL. Probably for kids, but they were super tasty. Most days, I have over 200g of carbs. I guess it works for my body, and hopefully it keeps working! I track my calories, fat, carbs, protein, etc, just so I can look over what works best for me. Here is a typical day for me. Most of you probably don't even eat half of this.

Breakfast: 1 whole banana with 1/4 cup granola (sometimes just the banana fills me up, so I eat the granola later)

Lunch: Bagel thin (everything) toasted, with 1 slice of cheese and 2oz reduced sodium turkey breast lunchmeat

Snack:Smoothie (1cup) OR Yogurt (1/2 cup) with berries and 1/4 cup granola

Dinner: 4 oz grilled boneless, skinless chicken breast (marinated), 1/4 cup of green Beans, and 1 slice of cheese

Snack: 1/4 cup chocolate granola or sf pudding cup or sf Jello or all of the above :)

Hope this helps someone! If you aren't losing much or are in a stall, it cant hurt to try! I know organic foods are a lot more expensive, but I feel great just adding a few organic things in. I am planning on adding more. Also, adding some more veggies.

I am not exercising right now. I plan to start the Couch to 5K program really soon! Once I do start that, I am going to add a Protein Drink on the days I walk/jog. Probably going to add in some other exercises too.

Thanks again for all the support! You guys are awesome!

All that sounds sooo delicious Sarah!!! You have inspired me to make me some Greek yogurt w/Fiber One... lol :) I love Granola though, I haven't had any in a long time. I need to go buy some.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
